APPLICATION OVERVIEW
delivers a breakthrough in the synthesis of battery materials
All within a continuous, scalable system. Unlike conventional batch reactors, the LCTR® offers micro-scale mixing and high shear agitation that directly improves material quality and production efficiency for next-generation battery materials such as NCM, NCA, LLZO, and Mn-based precursors.
Why LCTR® for Battery Materials?
- enabling high-precision mixing
- faster material transfer
- superior particle uniformity
- Particle size control
- Fine particle manufacturing
- Increased tap density
01. NCM / NCA Cathode Precursor
Compared to conventional batch reactors, LCTR® provides:
| Item | Batch Reactor | LCTR® |
|---|---|---|
| Fluid Mixing | Macro-scale | Micro-scale |
| Mass Transfer Speed (m/s) | 1.0 | 3.3 |
| Agitation Intensity (W/kg) | 0.8 | 5.8 |
| Processing Time (hr) | 10 | 3 |
| Particle Uniformity (Span) | 0.5 | 0.2 |
| Tap Density (g/mL) | 2.1 | 2.2 |
Additional Reactions Supported:
LDH formation via coating process:
(NxCyMz)(OH)₂ + CoAl₂(OH)₆ → CoAl₂(OH)₆ – (NxCyMz)(OH)₂
02. LLZO – Solid Electrolyte Material
Material: Lithium Lanthanum Zirconium Oxide (LLZO)
| Division | LCTR 1 | LCTR 2 | Batch |
|---|---|---|---|
| Doping & Calcination Temp | Ga-0.2 mol @900°C | Ga-0.2 mol @800°C | Ga-0.2 mol @900°C |
| Impedance (Ω·cm²) | 94.38 | 161.30 | 459.34 |
| Total Ionic Conductivity (S/cm, R.T.) | 1.49×10⁻³ | 1.31×10⁻³ | 3.90×10⁻⁴ |
03. (MnCo)(OH)₂ – Particle Control for High-Performance Materials
Objective: Spherical particles with <10 μm size
| Division | Batch | LCTR® |
|---|---|---|
| Particle Size (μm) | 30.2 | 7.3 |
| Uniformity Index | 1.9 | 1.3 |
→ Result: 4.1× smaller particle size and 1.4× improved uniformity
- Superior Mixing → Micro-scale uniformity boosts product consistency
- Shorter Reaction Time → Up to 70% faster production cycles
- Better Yield & Density → Enhanced tap density and particle morphology
- Continuous Flow = Scalable Manufacturing → From lab validation to commercial output
